You have left upper eyelid ptosis. It may also correlate with bony facial asymmetry, with left side of your face being smaller than the right side (although hard to to tell from your cropped photo). There are surgical options to improve the symmetry of the eyelids. Consult an oculoplastic surgeon. Dr Taban
As Dr. Steinsapir has mentioned, you have mild left upper eyelid ptosis. In addition, you have mild brow asymmetry, with the left side being lower. It is not unusual for patients to have a degree of right/left asymmetry, and I would suspect that there is an underlying bony asymmetry as well. ASOPRS. org is a great site for additional information.
Lazy eye is a lay term for amblyopia. The lack of visual development in one of the eyes from infancy results in the eye turning in or out. Treatment for amblyopia is early childhood patching and when necessary eye muscle surgery to correct eye alignment. This is not what you appear to have.

The American Society for Ophthalmic Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery maintains a geographic directory that can also help you find a well qualified surgeon ( ASOPRS dot org).

Your question will be best answered by having a consultation with a facial plastic/occuloplastic specialist so your face volume and dimensions can be measured and evaluated. Could you have some damage to your facial nerve to the left forehead from a forceps application? Lots of questions plus a good examination first then solutions made if any exist. Maybe dropping the right brow a little with Botox might help?
You should see an opthalmologist for your Lazy eye for evaluation and possible treatment options.
At two weeks, you are still very early in the procedure outcome process so do as the doctor says…wait, be patient, and then evaluate the outcome.
These genetic variations are what make all of us different and unique. This situation has no easy fixes, and I would caution you throwing a lot of money to something with at best modest results.
